Ricky Slade (RB Penn State, transfer to Old Dominion)



A five-star member of the Nittany Lions’ 2018 recruiting class, Slade was rated as the No. 1 all-purpose running back in the country. Slade was also the No. 1 player regardless of position in the state of Virginia. Only two signees in PSU’s class that year, defensive end Micah Parsons and wide receiver Justin Shorter, were rated higher than Slade.

In two seasons in Happy Valley, Slade ran for 471 yards and eight touchdowns on 92 carries. This past season, he also caught 12 passes for another 105 yards.

Slade will more than likely have to sit out 2020, leaving him two years of eligibility moving forward.

Old Dominion is coming off a 1-11 football campaign.
